The Sunshine Coast to Coolangatta, extending into northern New South Wales, is bracing for damaging surf conditions today that may lead to coastal erosion. Residents and visitors in these areas should exercise caution.
Concurrently, a hazardous surf warning is in effect, stretching from the Sunshine Coast down to the southern regions of New South Wales. Authorities strongly advise against entering the water under these treacherous conditions.
Communities in New South Wales, including Tweed Heads, Byron Bay, Yamba, Evans Head, Ballina, and Mullumbimby, have been alerted to the potential dangers. The warning comes after a week of persistent rainfall across the eastern part of Australia.
While these perilous surf conditions are predicted to subside over the weekend, forecasts indicate that wet weather will make a return next week, primarily impacting the south-eastern regions.
Despite rough conditions easing, damp conditions are expected to resume next week, particularly across the south-east.
Conditions in Queensland are expected to clear up over the weekend, with rain becoming a possibility later next week.
